While preload dependence is a broader physiological concept, fluid responsiveness is a practical clinical tool. Both are linked by the Frank-Starling curve, but they serve different purposes. Understanding preload dependence helps predict how the heart might respond to.

in response to an increase in preload, as illustrated by the ascending part of the Frank-Starling curve. This is a fundamental physiological property and does not require external intervention to occur. Fluid responsiveness is a clinical measure that determines if a patient will.

Are "preload dependence" and "fluid responsiveness" the same?. PD and FR are related but distinct concepts in hemodynamics. They're usually interchanged but don't express the same ideas. Preload dependence describes the heart's intrinsic ability to increase stroke volume.
